Great automobile

The finest quality vehicle we've ever owned. The cost to operate and maintain this car was at a minimum. We would highly recommend ownership of a Genesis. The styling and ease of entry and exiting is easily accomplished. 1

I LOVE my GENESIS

I wanted the 2012 Genesis from the moment I saw it and read the reviews. It took me almost a year of shopping cars to convince my husband it was the car for me! Five years and a few months later, I love my Genesis as much now as the day I drove it off the lot. If I were to buy another vehicle it would be a Hyundia Genesis!

What a beauty

I saw this in 2011 at a restaurant I was.impressed. I had driven a Mercedes Benz diesel for 16 years and I was very pleased and didn't want the maintenance of adblue .. I researched Hyundai and decided to purchase the 2012 Genesis. Its a comfortable vehicle with a lots of style.

Genesis review

I am very pleased with my 2012 Hyunadi Genesis. I enjoy how it handles the road on long drives. My only regret is the low front when I park and hit the curb. My miles are low and no I am not ready to sell so stop asking to put me in a new car!!!!

EXCELLENT!!!

The Genesis is a very classy vehicle, the ride is exceptionally smooth and it's great on gas for an 8 cylinder vehicle. I definitely recommend it and I'm looking forward to upgrading to the G90 one day.

Gigi is the greatest.....

I truly love my 2012 Genesis, I sometimes wished I would’ve got the 5.0 model but the 3.8 works for me just fine. I am impressed with the handling, the classic look of it. I’m now looking at a newer Genesis model in the near future.

Love this car

I love everything about this car so far. I'd like to keep it nice for a long time. It's a very smooth ride, and I've never had any serious problems. The gas mileage and power is good. Beautiful car.

Awsome car....

The characteristics of the car is great; the ride, the look, the performance and the comfort. The only draw back is the paint on the fender in the engine compartment is peeling. The car has 51800 miles. Thank you.

3.8 is a GREAT car, but...

Great car! Has a lot of standard features and is an excellent value. But in the Northeast, you will need snow tires especially if you're using the car as a daily driver. All in all, the Michelins that come on the vehicle (18) are very good, but over 6 inches of snow and look out!!

Style, comfort and class

It has performed well I enjoy a nice drive so this car has over 115,000 open road miles. Its economical to maintain and operate. I have one regret the change in body style of this vehicle has steered away from a new purchase. This vehicle's style caught my eye a year before I purchased it, did my homework and was pleased with the results of my purchase. S

Nice car for the money

Purchased CPO at valley dealership Car was loaded with all tech and packages for that model year. Car runs fine and I have had no major issues. The car does eat batteries if not driven regularly. On third battery now and use trickle charger if not be driven for extended period.

Great Vehicle

I absolutely love my car. I however don’t like the known transmission problem with it. If they could get the transmission problem corrected, this car would be excellent. I also believe the original 10/100,000 warranty should be transferable. The car is makes a statement and no one knows what it is. Get a handle on the transmission issue, and you’ve got yourself a masterpiece!

Reliable.

It has served its purpose. Reliable since I had it. Never had problems with it though I have issues with gas mileage, other than that, it's an excellent car and I love driving it. It also has spacious interior.
